We establish the existence of a scaling limit $\mathcal{E}_p$ of discrete $p$-energies on the graphs approximating generalized Sierpi\'{n}ski carpets for $p > \dim_{\text{ARC}}(\textsf{SC})$, where $\dim_{\text{ARC}}(\textsf{SC})$ is the…

We prove sharp two-sided bounds of the fundamental solution for an integro-differential operator of order $\alpha \in (0,2)$ that generates a $d$-dimensional Markov process. The corresponding Dirichlet form is comparable to that of $d$…

Three-dimensional icosahedral random tilings with rhombohedral cells are studied in the semi-entropic model. We introduce a global energy measure defined by the variance of the quasilattice points in the orthogonal space. The internal…

An exact description is provided of an almost spherical fluid vesicle with a fixed area and a fixed enclosed volume locally deformed by external normal forces bringing two nearby points on the surface together symmetrically. The conformal…

We present a new approach to the theory of k-forms on self-similar fractals. We work out the details for two examples, the standard Sierpinski gasket and the 3-dimensional Sierpinski gasket, but the method is expected to be effective for…

Consider a complex line bundle over a compact complex manifold equipped with an infinitely differentiable metric with strictly positive curvature form. Assign to positive tensor powers of this bundle the associated product metrics and…

We introduce a new contraction property, which we call the generalized $p$-contraction property, for $p$-energy forms as generalizations of many well-known inequalities, such as $p$-Clarkson's inequality, the strong subadditivity and the…

The local Casimir energy density for a massless scalar field associated with step-function potentials in a 3+1 dimensional spherical geometry is considered. The potential is chosen to be zero except in a shell of thickness $\delta$, where…

I study the properties of the scalar sigma-meson [also referred to as f_0(600)] at nonzero temperature in the O(N)-model in the framework of the Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis formalism. In the standard Hartree (or large-N) approximation one…

We investigate a family of radially symmetric Coulomb gas systems at inverse temperature $\beta = 2$. The family is characterised by the property that the density of the equilibrium measure vanishes on a ring at radius $r_*$, which lies…

We consider finite energy and $L^2$ differential forms associated with strongly local regular Dirichlet forms on compact connected topologically one-dimensional spaces. We introduce notions of local exactness and local harmonicity and prove…

Koskela and Zhou have proven that, on the harmonic Sierpinski gasket with Kusuoka's measure, the "natural" Dirichlet form coincides with Cheeger's energy. We give a different proof of this result, which uses the properties of the Lyapounov…

This paper considers the properties of Dirichlet Spaces of Homogeneous type which consist of band limited functions that are nearly exponential localizations on $\mathbb{R}^k.$ This is a powerful tool in harmonic analysis and it makes…

Singular vectors are those for which the quality of rational approximations provided by Dirichlet's Theorem can be improved by arbitrarily small multiplicative constants. We provide an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of singular…

This paper studies the growth of local extrema of Laplacian eigenfunctions on post-critically finite (p.c.f.) fractals. We establish the sharp two-sided estimate $\#\mathrm{Extr}(u_\lambda)\asymp\lambda^{d_S/2}$ for the Sierpinski gasket,…

We obtain sharp two-sided heat kernel estimates on spaces with varying dimension, in which two spaces of general dimension are connected at one point. On these spaces, if the dimensions of the two constituent parts are different, the volume…

We define a measure on tuples of partitions, called the symplectic Schur process, that should be regarded as the right analogue of the Schur process of Okounkov-Reshetikhin for the Cartan type C. The weights of our measure include factors…

We apply the Davies method to give a quick proof for upper estimate of the heat kernel for the non-local Dirichlet form on the ultra-metric space. The key observation is that the heat kernel of the truncated Dirichlet form vanishes when two…

We prove genuinely sharp two-sided global estimates for heat kernels on all compact rank-one symmetric spaces. This generalizes the authors' recent result obtained for a Euclidean sphere of arbitrary dimension. Furthermore, similar heat…

We consider a trace theorem for self-similar Dirichlet forms on self-similar sets to self-similar subsets. In particular, we characterize the trace of the domains of Dirichlet forms on the Sierpinski gaskets and the Sierpinski carpets to…
